College Choir
To Leave Feb. 29
Speakers for the Founders Week program have begun the series
meetings to be held from 8:15 a.m. until 7:30 p.m. at places on campus.
Brief sketches on the principal speakers follow.
Dr. S. Franklin Logsdon will
speak from the background of a
long and successful ministry as
he conducts dai-ly
Bible studies
in the book of
Jeremiah each
day at 1:45. He
has been over
thirty years in
the ministry,
and for over
twenty years he
has been serving the Lord in con-ferences
and programs such as
Founder's Week.
His most important pastorates
have been at the Bethel Baptist
Temple in Erie, Pennsylvania; at
the Central Baptist church of Lon-don,
Ontario, Canada; and recently
in the pulpit of the widely-famed
Moody Memorial church of Chi-cago.
At present, he occupies the
pastorate of the Immanuel church
of Holland, Michigan, an indepen-dent
Baptist congregation.
Dr. Logsdon is the author of a
number of articles that have ap-peared
in evangelical periodicals,
and also of six books.
The eighth annual tour of the
college choir, formerly chapel
choir, will begin at noon on Febru-ary
29. The choir will travel for
twelve days presenting the gospel
message in song and spoken testi-mony.
The members are taking
their spring vacation time to go
on tour and will travel by char-tered
bus. A pre-tour concert will
be given on February 26 at Payne
Avenue Baptist Church. The fur-thest
point traveled to on the tour
will be Detroit, Michigan. The fol-lowing
is the day by day itinerary
of the tour:
February 29—LaCrosse, Wis.
March 1—Waukegan, Ill.
March 2—Sawyer, Mich.
March 3—Cadillac, Mich.
The greater part of the debate

last weekend to attend the Moor-head,
Minnesota, tournament. Four
teams were entered, including Mar-jory
Peterson and Betty Mattson,
Lois Larson and Marie Magnuson,
Donn Goss and Chuck Paton, and
2red Schindeler and Jack Tierney.
They were accompanied by coach
Lee Kingsley and Don Richardson.

Slog We Merrily . .
Parable
There was a town—a small town—that had all that a little town
needs, including critics. But mostly, the folks were very happy and self-satisfied.
"We are one big happy family," they said.
One day a group of whippersnappers got together and decided the
town was in a rut. The social and cultural activities, what few there
were, had that thrown together, "dull but we laugh anyway" quality
that proved that a "faithful few" had done everything. Of course the
critics cut the affairs to pieces but did nothing more. Even so, the
town's activities on Friday and Saturday nights were wretched—
unless there was a ping pong game over at the recreation house. So,
these whippersnappers organized a chess society. At first they would
be exclusive; then other societies would form, they thought.
They decided to get chartered and be installed as a recognized
organization of the town. This was their mistake. If they had kept quiet
and silently organized, nobody would have known the difference until
it would be too late to stop the group.
But the fact is, this matter got hot, and the townspeople became
quite angry. "What do these whippersnappers mean ? (Why wasn't
I asked to join ?)" "They are non-ethical, non-practical, and non-
Americanistic!" "They mean to upset our whole lives, even our church
work." "They are a threat to our happy family atmosphere!" "There
is no need for such groups." There was a huge debate and after that,
the chess society was "stamped out" by the patriotic townspeople.
And so this little town is going along, getting a bit larger every
year. The "happy family spirit" prevails, but the more honest will
admit the spirit's hollow. The family is getting too big and only a few
overworked officials keep the town going . . . And the whippersnappers
—they weren't stamped out. They wait quietly—maybe they are organ-izing
once again—who knows ?
What Is Culture?
by Lois Larson
What is culture ? And how can it be determined whether or not
a school is cultural ? Is the degree of culture determined by how many
art displays are exhibited in the lounge each year ? Or by how many
students attend the concerts and films ? Or by whether we use the
correct fork at the dinner table ? Many people seem to think of culture
as something distasteful, something to be put on like an extra heavy
garment.
Perhaps, it might best be said that real culture can be acquired
through an inquiring and exploring mind, seeking to find richness
in music, arts, drama, and other such cultural opportunities. However,
in this search for culture, it would not be necessary to accept all the
ideas, but it would seem that an attitude of toleration and an attempt
at understanding would be a characteristic of the cultured person.
Located in a cultural center as it is, Bethel offers its students
unusual opportunities in taking advantage of rich opportunities. For
instance, the University of Minnesota offers much to those interested
in drama or music, and both the Minneapolis Art Institute and the
Walker Art Institute, as well as the St. Paul Gallery and School of
Art, have on display outstanding art exhibits. In addition to these,
neighboring colleges frequently provide programs of a cultural nature
open to outsiders. Students interested in these opportunities should
check the cultural bulletin board regularly. It might be interesting to
note that tickets to the Minneapolis Symphony orchestra can be pur-chased
through the school at a savings of $2.00. Cultural events and
exhibits have been brought to the Bethel campus as well. Among the
forthcoming events, a Renaissance Culture Week has been planned for
the spring quarter, offering outstanding cultural opportunities.
In speaking of the cultural state of the school, Miss Mildred Bisgrove,
advisor to the cultural council, had this comment to make. "We are not
prescribing what the cultural diet should be, but we are providing cul-tural
experiences and participation opportunities for the students."
With all of these cultural opportunities afforded them, each student
who has the desire and interest may grow culturally and add to the
general tone and balance of the school life.

Cupid's Capture
by Junetta Best.
My calendar indicates a special event called Valentine's Day to-day.
That's it, February 14 and leap year besides. Already many of
the fairer sex have been overcome with the fever which makes them
acutely aware that here is their chance again for the first time in
four long years.
Here's a fast tip girls, Cupid works for your side even outside of
the realms of leap year. The following is a case in point.
A freshman who seems to be pretty well caught and enjoying
the tender trap is Jack Kibby. It all happened at summer camp. Jack
says the first time he went out with her was after a dressing race
between himself and another young chap who seemed equally interested
in taking her out. They had both told her they would meet her for
dinner so—first lesson on being on time—but early! She and Jack had
dinner together and later attended the evening services. Then, (get
this part now, it's chock full of hints) they were sitting side by side
on a log chatting and she was eating a candy bar on a stick. Got that ?
When the candy was all gone she said, "What shall I do with this
stick ?" He answered, "Throw it on the ground." She told Jack to
throw it on the ground instead. He did, and before it had even cooled
she snatched it up, grabbed his hand (nice play, huh) and headed him
towards the dean's office. (Jack didn't know the camp rules). She
reported to the dean that she had found "this boy" cluttering up the
camp grounds.
After a penalty was pronounced they realized that they were still
holding hands. Pretty sly on somebody's part. Jack's last comment,
"We've been holding hands ever since."
Consider this ladies, (and maybe some gents would like to try it)
if it worked in August, of all times, it should certainly work in the
month of Valentines. All you need is a candy bar, a log, and a victim.
Question
Now take this situation.
A perfectly normal Bethel fel-low
glances across the library
table at the girl sitting opposite
him, and suddenly realize she's
quite a charming number. And
he thinks and thinks and thinks,
and he says to himself, "I'll ask
her for a date." So he does.
Two weeks away is a highly
advertised concert close by. Our
hero musters up enough courage
and asks her to go to it with him.
Now, as we mentioned, our hero
is a perfectly normal Bethel boy—
that's all though, only normal.
He's the kind of a guy a girl
would like to have for a brother.
He is not particularly handsome,
nor is he the athletic star, nor
does he own a new car. In fact,
he has nothing that would make
a perfectly lovely Christian girl
want to go out with him.
So our heroine says, "I'm sorry,
but I'm going to have to study
that night."
And so, on the appointed night
she makes her appearance at the
concert with a different fellow,
sans books, sans notes, sans
charts, sans anything that would
suggest study.
Now the $64,000 question: Do
girls who do this lie ?
in my little sack. But Blue moons
don't come around very often.
Well that's the problem. Solu-tion—
get more help making bag
lunches so that the girl making
them doesn't have to mass produce,
and can put more time and talent
on each one. Also get a larger
selection of sandwich spreads. Or
—allow the coffee shop to work in
cooperation with the dining hall
in putting out a meal that stu-dents
could eat say 3rd or 4th per-iod.
I've seriously got the urge to
regurge right now into my now
empty bag. Lettuce do something
about this problem.

Bethel Rolls By
Northern Mich. Northwestern comes over here
Thursday afternoon to try to prove
their earlier victory over our Roy-als
was no fluke. Whether they can
do it on a foreign floor remains to
be seen.
The key to Bethel's chances will
be how hot Conrad is. In the first
Bethel-Northwestern game Bill
didn't start since he couldn't drive,
giving his opponent the chance to
stop his set shooting much easier
also. But now he is all right again
and will be serving full-time duty.
Rekstad also had a bad night
from the field last January 21 as
he hit only three field goals. But
he was over-guarded since Bethel
couldn't hit at all from the out-side.
Terry Bottenfield started to hit
again in the Luther game and,
with Almeroth starting to roll
after a scholastic battle, the team
has two more to look to for some
heavy scoring.
Steady Don Knoner will prob-ably
lead any fast breaks the team
will have, while Paul Ohlin and
Mark Nyberg will, along with Rek-stad,
do most of the rebounding.

Northwestern also had a bad
night when Bethel played them.
Martin is a very good set shot
usually, but he only hit two
against the Royals. Underneath
the Eagles will have Thompson
and Gunderson to harrass Rek-stad,
Ohlin, and company. The
biggest advantage Northwestern
will have, however, is their bench.
They used ten players in the last
game and each scored at least
three points.
Bethel's advantage will be their
home floor. Will it be enough ?
Intramural News
There is still a three way tie for
first place in the men's intramural
league as East, Plains, and Ill. B.
teams won to remain deadlocked.
East tipped Minn. 51-49 in a
battle of height versus outside
shooting. MacFadden, Christenson,
Kibby and Ole Anderson were just
too much for Paul and Dale Lar-son
and Denny Sundeen.
Ill. B, led by George "Shotgun"
Visel and Dick Andre tromped
West 58-27. Visel hit 26 and Andre
20.
The Plains team remained in
first place by tipping last place
Ill. A 52-46 behind Norris Magnu-son
and Dave Bailey.
In the other game, the Twin
Cities edged the Wisc.-Dak. team
35-34 to keep them down in the
cellar. Lundeen and Anderson both
scored 12 points for the winners
while Plank hit 15 for the losers.
Bemidji, Minn. — (ACP)—With
one football season over and the
fans already talking about the
next, it seemed a good idea to
pass along this brief dictionary
of football terms. It was originally

Rev. and Mrs. Reuben Holm
were appointed missionaries of the

India, returning
on furlough in
the summer of
1955.
Reuben Holm was born in Dul-uth,

with his fellow-church member
and Bethel classmate Alphin Con-rad,
to form the singing team
known as the "Melody Twins."
On August 22, 1931, Mr. Holm
was married to Edna Pearson.
After the Holms served two terms
on the South Bank in Assam un-der
the American Baptist Foreign
Mission Society they applied to
the General Conference Board and
were appointed in 1947.
Missionary Holm served in full-time
evangelism on the North
Bank as superintendent of the
church of the Mongoldai district
and gave important supervision to
the building of the Tezpur Bap-tist
Christian hospital.

as pastor, and was chaplain
for the Christian Medical society
of Greater Boston. He attended
Ashland college, Ohio, where he
received his B. A. degree and

Rev. and Mrs. James Luckman
served on the Conference mission
field in Ethiopia from 1950 until
they came home
on furlough re-cently.
It was
R e v . Luckman
together with
missionary Sten
Lindberg, w h o
was commis-sioned
by the
Conference t o
open fields in that country in 1949.
In going to Africa, he returned
to his homeland; he was born in
Capetown, South Africa, where his
father was in business. Following
the death of his father there, he
moved with his mother to America.
Here he became a Christian and
joined a church in Connecticut
when he was eighteen.
Immediately after his conver-sion
the young man began to pre-pare
for what he thought would
be the Christian ministry at home.
While at Moody Bible institute
some time later, however, he was
influenced to go into foreign mis-sion
work, partly through a spea-ker
who appealed for men to show
heroism for Christ. In 1932 he
left for Ethiopia, remaining there
in missionary service until the
Italian occupation in 1936.
Back in the United States, Rev.
Luckman accepted a Baptist pas-torate
while completing his edu-cation
at Gordon in Boston. Dur-ing
this time he married Margaret
Stewart. After graduating in 1941
he went to Moody Bible institute
as head of the Extension depart-ment;
then in 1943 he went back
to Ethiopia without his family for
two more years of mission work.
From 1945 to 1949 he was back
in the States, Director of Public
Relations at Gordon Divinity
school. It was in the latter year
that he became associated with the
Foreign Mission Board of the Gen-eral
conference, under which he
and his wife have been serving
since.

H. Wilbert Norton, Dean of Edu-cation
at Trinity Seminary and
Bible College, joined the faculty
of Trinity Sem-inary
and Bible
College in Sep-tember
1950
while on a forc-ed
medical fur-lough
from Bel--
gian Congo, Af-rica
where he
served as a mis-the
Evangelical
Free Church of America beginning
in 1940.
Dr. Norton has been professor
of Missions and related subjects
and has directed the missions pro-gram
which was activated in Oct-ober
1951. From 1953 to 1955 he
served as Dean of Men, assuming
the duties of Dean of Education
in September 1955.
Dr. Norton was graduated from
Wheaton College in 1936 with a
B. A. degree in History. He re-ceived
his Th.M. degree from Col-umbia
Bible College in May 1939
and holds the M.A. degree in Bibli-cal
Education from the same insti-tution.
He received the degree
Doctor of Theology from Northern
Baptist Theological Seminary in
May 1955.
Missionary?
Maybe . . . .
Interested in Foreigri Missions ?
Oh, you're just preparing, but it
could be your interest in foreign
missions automatically creates a
need for financial protection for
your family. You are quite aware
of the episode in Ecuador or Ralph
Larson in Ethiopia, that you are
planning to put the physical wel-fare
of your family at a high risk.
Foreign mission boards and socie-ties
understand this and allow a
definite number of dollars to each
missionary for the purchase of life
insurance and retirement income.
Did you know that no company
will issue waiver of premium dis-ability
to a missionary or mission-ary
candidate ? Did you know that
a missionary going to Mexico,
Algiers, or Belgian Congo pays
from $15 to $25 per $1,000 extra
premium for his life insurance ?
Dollars that should be going to
purchase additional life insurance
or being put aside for retirement
must be paid into these extra
premiums. This can be eliminated
if you act soon enough. Next year
may be too late. For further in-formation
I urge you to call Leo
Lindberg at either Pa 4-3607 or

Fer Corn's Sake
Wise is the man who asks early,
for he gets the best choice. I often
wonder why our boys are so slug-gish
about asking for dates. They
must be shy. Well, some day
some'll wish they had been shyer.
Sometimes I wish I was shy—a
wife that is.
Seriously, I always get the last
word in my house. It's "Year, dear."
But you know if it wasn't for
marriage husbands and wives
would have to fight with strang-ers.
Oh, don't let that bother you
fellows. Remember to keep your
humor. The other day, wife and I
were out driving and had a tiff.
Everything was awfully silent for
quite a time; then we drove by
a jackass standing in a field. Turn-ed
to her and said, "Relative of
yours ?"
She smiled and said, "Yes. By
marriage." We'll see you around.
Vital Statistics
The old song goes "one hundred
bottles of coke on the wall"—but
at Bethel it might be sung "200,000
glasses of milk in a year," for that
is just how much Bethelites con-sume
in one year's time!
In a recent survey taken by Mr.
Harold Lidbom, business manager,
it was found that students con-sume
3,600 lbs. of butter, 1,300
gallons of ice cream, 31,000 pounds
of meat, 1,000 bushels of potatoes
and 15,000 average household cans
of vegetables, besides frozen vege-tables.
Another interesting thought —
most students find that they gain
weight during the course of a year
at Bethel—and no wonder!
Hope you've been keeping warm
all winter—or thus far, anyway.
We thought you might be inter-ested
in the cost of the utilities
and the amount of heat used on
our campus.
Utilities cost $1,000 a year and
fuel comes to a grand total of
$5,500 a year. The heating system
was changed from oil to gas last
November. By making this change
it saves $1,300 yearly. One plant
heats all of the campus except the
Bodien residence.
If you haven't been feeling com-fortable
at all, the figures above
should certainly settle any of your
problems.

Slog We Merrily . .
Parable
There was a town—a small town—that had all that a little town
needs, including critics. But mostly, the folks were very happy and self-satisfied.
"We are one big happy family," they said.
One day a group of whippersnappers got together and decided the
town was in a rut. The social and cultural activities, what few there
were, had that thrown together, "dull but we laugh anyway" quality
that proved that a "faithful few" had done everything. Of course the
critics cut the affairs to pieces but did nothing more. Even so, the
town's activities on Friday and Saturday nights were wretched—
unless there was a ping pong game over at the recreation house. So,
these whippersnappers organized a chess society. At first they would
be exclusive; then other societies would form, they thought.
They decided to get chartered and be installed as a recognized
organization of the town. This was their mistake. If they had kept quiet
and silently organized, nobody would have known the difference until
it would be too late to stop the group.
But the fact is, this matter got hot, and the townspeople became
quite angry. "What do these whippersnappers mean ? (Why wasn't
I asked to join ?)" "They are non-ethical, non-practical, and non-
Americanistic!" "They mean to upset our whole lives, even our church
work." "They are a threat to our happy family atmosphere!" "There
is no need for such groups." There was a huge debate and after that,
the chess society was "stamped out" by the patriotic townspeople.
And so this little town is going along, getting a bit larger every
year. The "happy family spirit" prevails, but the more honest will
admit the spirit's hollow. The family is getting too big and only a few
overworked officials keep the town going . . . And the whippersnappers
—they weren't stamped out. They wait quietly—maybe they are organ-izing
once again—who knows ?
What Is Culture?
by Lois Larson
What is culture ? And how can it be determined whether or not
a school is cultural ? Is the degree of culture determined by how many
art displays are exhibited in the lounge each year ? Or by how many
students attend the concerts and films ? Or by whether we use the
correct fork at the dinner table ? Many people seem to think of culture
as something distasteful, something to be put on like an extra heavy
garment.
Perhaps, it might best be said that real culture can be acquired
through an inquiring and exploring mind, seeking to find richness
in music, arts, drama, and other such cultural opportunities. However,
in this search for culture, it would not be necessary to accept all the
ideas, but it would seem that an attitude of toleration and an attempt
at understanding would be a characteristic of the cultured person.
Located in a cultural center as it is, Bethel offers its students
unusual opportunities in taking advantage of rich opportunities. For
instance, the University of Minnesota offers much to those interested
in drama or music, and both the Minneapolis Art Institute and the
Walker Art Institute, as well as the St. Paul Gallery and School of
Art, have on display outstanding art exhibits. In addition to these,
neighboring colleges frequently provide programs of a cultural nature
open to outsiders. Students interested in these opportunities should
check the cultural bulletin board regularly. It might be interesting to
note that tickets to the Minneapolis Symphony orchestra can be pur-chased
through the school at a savings of $2.00. Cultural events and
exhibits have been brought to the Bethel campus as well. Among the
forthcoming events, a Renaissance Culture Week has been planned for
the spring quarter, offering outstanding cultural opportunities.
In speaking of the cultural state of the school, Miss Mildred Bisgrove,
advisor to the cultural council, had this comment to make. "We are not
prescribing what the cultural diet should be, but we are providing cul-tural
experiences and participation opportunities for the students."
With all of these cultural opportunities afforded them, each student
who has the desire and interest may grow culturally and add to the
general tone and balance of the school life.

Cupid's Capture
by Junetta Best.
My calendar indicates a special event called Valentine's Day to-day.
That's it, February 14 and leap year besides. Already many of
the fairer sex have been overcome with the fever which makes them
acutely aware that here is their chance again for the first time in
four long years.
Here's a fast tip girls, Cupid works for your side even outside of
the realms of leap year. The following is a case in point.
A freshman who seems to be pretty well caught and enjoying
the tender trap is Jack Kibby. It all happened at summer camp. Jack
says the first time he went out with her was after a dressing race
between himself and another young chap who seemed equally interested
in taking her out. They had both told her they would meet her for
dinner so—first lesson on being on time—but early! She and Jack had
dinner together and later attended the evening services. Then, (get
this part now, it's chock full of hints) they were sitting side by side
on a log chatting and she was eating a candy bar on a stick. Got that ?
When the candy was all gone she said, "What shall I do with this
stick ?" He answered, "Throw it on the ground." She told Jack to
throw it on the ground instead. He did, and before it had even cooled
she snatched it up, grabbed his hand (nice play, huh) and headed him
towards the dean's office. (Jack didn't know the camp rules). She
reported to the dean that she had found "this boy" cluttering up the
camp grounds.
After a penalty was pronounced they realized that they were still
holding hands. Pretty sly on somebody's part. Jack's last comment,
"We've been holding hands ever since."
Consider this ladies, (and maybe some gents would like to try it)
if it worked in August, of all times, it should certainly work in the
month of Valentines. All you need is a candy bar, a log, and a victim.
Question
Now take this situation.
A perfectly normal Bethel fel-low
glances across the library
table at the girl sitting opposite
him, and suddenly realize she's
quite a charming number. And
he thinks and thinks and thinks,
and he says to himself, "I'll ask
her for a date." So he does.
Two weeks away is a highly
advertised concert close by. Our
hero musters up enough courage
and asks her to go to it with him.
Now, as we mentioned, our hero
is a perfectly normal Bethel boy—
that's all though, only normal.
He's the kind of a guy a girl
would like to have for a brother.
He is not particularly handsome,
nor is he the athletic star, nor
does he own a new car. In fact,
he has nothing that would make
a perfectly lovely Christian girl
want to go out with him.
So our heroine says, "I'm sorry,
but I'm going to have to study
that night."
And so, on the appointed night
she makes her appearance at the
concert with a different fellow,
sans books, sans notes, sans
charts, sans anything that would
suggest study.
Now the $64,000 question: Do
girls who do this lie ?
in my little sack. But Blue moons
don't come around very often.
Well that's the problem. Solu-tion—
get more help making bag
lunches so that the girl making
them doesn't have to mass produce,
and can put more time and talent
on each one. Also get a larger
selection of sandwich spreads. Or
—allow the coffee shop to work in
cooperation with the dining hall
in putting out a meal that stu-dents
could eat say 3rd or 4th per-iod.
I've seriously got the urge to
regurge right now into my now
empty bag. Lettuce do something
about this problem.

Bethel Rolls By
Northern Mich. Northwestern comes over here
Thursday afternoon to try to prove
their earlier victory over our Roy-als
was no fluke. Whether they can
do it on a foreign floor remains to
be seen.
The key to Bethel's chances will
be how hot Conrad is. In the first
Bethel-Northwestern game Bill
didn't start since he couldn't drive,
giving his opponent the chance to
stop his set shooting much easier
also. But now he is all right again
and will be serving full-time duty.
Rekstad also had a bad night
from the field last January 21 as
he hit only three field goals. But
he was over-guarded since Bethel
couldn't hit at all from the out-side.
Terry Bottenfield started to hit
again in the Luther game and,
with Almeroth starting to roll
after a scholastic battle, the team
has two more to look to for some
heavy scoring.
Steady Don Knoner will prob-ably
lead any fast breaks the team
will have, while Paul Ohlin and
Mark Nyberg will, along with Rek-stad,
do most of the rebounding.

Northwestern also had a bad
night when Bethel played them.
Martin is a very good set shot
usually, but he only hit two
against the Royals. Underneath
the Eagles will have Thompson
and Gunderson to harrass Rek-stad,
Ohlin, and company. The
biggest advantage Northwestern
will have, however, is their bench.
They used ten players in the last
game and each scored at least
three points.
Bethel's advantage will be their
home floor. Will it be enough ?
Intramural News
There is still a three way tie for
first place in the men's intramural
league as East, Plains, and Ill. B.
teams won to remain deadlocked.
East tipped Minn. 51-49 in a

shooting. MacFadden, Christenson,
Kibby and Ole Anderson were just
too much for Paul and Dale Lar-son
and Denny Sundeen.
Ill. B, led by George "Shotgun"
Visel and Dick Andre tromped
West 58-27. Visel hit 26 and Andre
20.
The Plains team remained in
first place by tipping last place
Ill. A 52-46 behind Norris Magnu-son
and Dave Bailey.
In the other game, the Twin

35-34 to keep them down in the
cellar. Lundeen and Anderson both
scored 12 points for the winners
while Plank hit 15 for the losers.

few months lat-er
they left for
a 6 1/2 year term
of service on the

India, returning
on furlough in
the summer of
1955.
Reuben Holm was born in Dul-uth,
Minnesota, and after accept-ing
Christ as Saviour at the age
of 11, was baptized and became
an active member of the Bethel

and Bethel classmate Alphin Con-rad,
to form the singing team
known as the "Melody Twins."
On August 22, 1931, Mr. Holm
was married to Edna Pearson.
After the Holms served two terms

Rev. and Mrs. James Luckman
served on the Conference mission
field in Ethiopia from 1950 until
they came home
on furlough re-cently.
It was
R e v . Luckman
together with
missionary Sten
Lindberg, w h o
was commis-sioned
by the
Conference t o
open fields in that country in 1949.
In going to Africa, he returned
to his homeland; he was born in
Capetown, South Africa, where his
father was in business. Following
the death of his father there, he
moved with his mother to America.
Here he became a Christian and
joined a church in Connecticut
when he was eighteen.
Immediately after his conver-sion
the young man began to pre-pare
for what he thought would
be the Christian ministry at home.
While at Moody Bible institute
some time later, however, he was
influenced to go into foreign mis-sion
work, partly through a spea-ker
who appealed for men to show
heroism for Christ. In 1932 he
left for Ethiopia, remaining there
in missionary service until the
Italian occupation in 1936.
Back in the United States, Rev.
Luckman accepted a Baptist pas-torate
while completing his edu-cation
at Gordon in Boston. Dur-ing
this time he married Margaret
Stewart. After graduating in 1941
he went to Moody Bible institute
as head of the Extension depart-ment;
then in 1943 he went back
to Ethiopia without his family for
two more years of mission work.
From 1945 to 1949 he was back
in the States, Director of Public
Relations at Gordon Divinity
school. It was in the latter year
that he became associated with the
Foreign Mission Board of the Gen-eral
conference, under which he
and his wife have been serving
since.

Missionary?
Maybe . . . .
Interested in Foreigri Missions ?
Oh, you're just preparing, but it
could be your interest in foreign
missions automatically creates a
need for financial protection for
your family. You are quite aware
of the episode in Ecuador or Ralph
Larson in Ethiopia, that you are
planning to put the physical wel-fare
of your family at a high risk.
Foreign mission boards and socie-ties
understand this and allow a
definite number of dollars to each
missionary for the purchase of life
insurance and retirement income.
Did you know that no company
will issue waiver of premium dis-ability
to a missionary or mission-ary
candidate ? Did you know that
a missionary going to Mexico,
Algiers, or Belgian Congo pays
from $15 to $25 per $1,000 extra
premium for his life insurance ?
Dollars that should be going to
purchase additional life insurance
or being put aside for retirement
must be paid into these extra
premiums. This can be eliminated
if you act soon enough. Next year
may be too late. For further in-formation

Fer Corn's Sake
Wise is the man who asks early,
for he gets the best choice. I often
wonder why our boys are so slug-gish
about asking for dates. They
must be shy. Well, some day
some'll wish they had been shyer.
Sometimes I wish I was shy—a
wife that is.
Seriously, I always get the last
word in my house. It's "Year, dear."
But you know if it wasn't for
marriage husbands and wives
would have to fight with strang-ers.
Oh, don't let that bother you
fellows. Remember to keep your
humor. The other day, wife and I
were out driving and had a tiff.
Everything was awfully silent for
quite a time; then we drove by
a jackass standing in a field. Turn-ed
to her and said, "Relative of
yours ?"
She smiled and said, "Yes. By
marriage." We'll see you around.
Vital Statistics
The old song goes "one hundred
bottles of coke on the wall"—but
at Bethel it might be sung "200,000
glasses of milk in a year," for that
is just how much Bethelites con-sume
in one year's time!
In a recent survey taken by Mr.
Harold Lidbom, business manager,
it was found that students con-sume
3,600 lbs. of butter, 1,300
gallons of ice cream, 31,000 pounds
of meat, 1,000 bushels of potatoes
and 15,000 average household cans
of vegetables, besides frozen vege-tables.
Another interesting thought —
most students find that they gain
weight during the course of a year
at Bethel—and no wonder!
Hope you've been keeping warm
all winter—or thus far, anyway.
We thought you might be inter-ested
in the cost of the utilities
and the amount of heat used on
our campus.
Utilities cost $1,000 a year and
fuel comes to a grand total of
$5,500 a year. The heating system
was changed from oil to gas last
November. By making this change
it saves $1,300 yearly. One plant
